Very interesting. Thank you. Now I know there's some connection between the earliest maemo version and the symbian touch models of those years... Thanks to this article, I know a little more about the history of hildon as a symbian framework. What I still don't understand is how hildon became a GTK based framework for a GNU/Linux device when it was originally designed for symbian. I assume they can't have used the same codebase... Still, they must have taken enough of the original symbian concept to justify keeping the name. Was it the same team? Was it only because the look and feel was almost the same? Does anyone know the full story of hildon, including the 770 and its successors?
